“Pathetic!” Cooler, the gilded fighter from the Seventh Universe shouts through his chitinous face mask as he stomps your head into the ground, having teleported right into your space after forcing him back with pillars of flame. His eyes then glow as he prepares to fire energy beams from his eyes down at you, but as he does you siphon off his power, draining it away and absorbing this power into your hands. Seeing this he leaps back, somehow sensing your fire pillars you'd redirected back at you both. And as he does, you catch the flames with your hand, drawing the power you'd used to make them back into your hands. Reclaiming the energy you'd used as you stand, eyes narrowing at him.
“How are you doing this?” you ask, letting your body go limp. Trying to bait him into rushing in recklessly, or to revealing how he's resisting your energy drain. Because, somehow, you can't take his energy! At least while it's inside his body, when he tries for an energy attack you've been able to drain his ki. But you can't steal his strength otherwise, wondering what sort of trick he's learned to resist your power?
“Wouldn't you like to know?” the golden fighter replies smugly, clenching his fists as he readies himself to attack again. “But you'll get no energy from me.”
“Won't I?” you reply, smirking as the two of you stare one another down. Trying to bait a reaction from him, to make him doubt, or try and refocus on whatever he's doing, and to fight sloppily and leave himself open. But he doesn't take the bait, standing still, ready to react to whatever you do. So, you decide to try and bait him in close, to get your hands on him directly. If you can't drain him slowly, you'll have to siphon his power directly. And so you raise your right hand's index finger directly at Cooler. Firing a bolt of lightning at his chest, forcing him to react. To come in, so you can get your hands on him. Which he does, easily weaving that bolt and dashing towards you. Slamming a fist up into your guts, doubling you over his arm as you bite and tear the inside of your cheek, making it seem as if he's more-seriously injured you as you 'cough up' blood. Then, in that moment of hesitation you reach out, grabbing his arm with your hands as he starts to pull back. Feeling something in your hands suddenly <span class="mu-i">crack</span> as you hold his freezing arm, then suddenly feel your energy drain begin to drain his ki! As if your draining it through cracks in some invisible, cold armor. Grinning up at him as you start directly draining his power. “Now your powers are-! Mine?”
